Answer:

20ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length = L

Let the width = W

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2L + 2W

Translating the word problem into an algebraic equation, we have;

L = 5W .......equation 1

2L + 2W = 24 ........equation 2

To find the width

Substituting equation 1 into equation 2, we have;

2(5W) + 2W = 24

10W + 2W = 24

12W = 24

W = 24/12

Width, W = 2 ft

To find the length;

Substituting the value of "W" into equation 1, we have;

L = 5W

L = 5*2

L = 10 ft

To find the area of the rectangle;

Area = LW

Area = 10*2

<em>Area = 20 ft²</em>

Therefore, the deck's area is 20 feet square.

Answer:

C?

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Jared makes x of a goodie bag per hour. How many

can he make in y of an hour?

B) Jared makes x of a goodie bag per hour. How many

can he make in y of an hour?

C) Jared has x of an hour left to finish making goodie  bags. It takes him y of an hour to make each goodie  bag. How many goodie bags can he make?

D) id k

Quotient is the answer to a division problem, so we need to find a problem that needs to divide x and y to find the answer. It isn't A or B, since they are asking for y, not the quotient. I have no idea what D is. C makes sense, so C might be the answer.

It tells us how much time he has(x), and how long it takes him to make 1 bag(y), and we need to find the answer, which is the quotient.

So C is the answer.

Find the values of s1 and r for a geometric sequence with s4 = 18 and s6= 8<br>​
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

  see below

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of terms that are two terms apart (s4 and s6) is the square of the common ratio:

  s6/s4 = r^2

  r = √(8/18)

  r = 2/3 . . . . . matches choices A and C

__

Using the formula for the general term, we now know enough to find the first term:

  sn = s1·r^(n-1)

  s4 = s1·(2/3)^(4-1)

Using s4 = 18 and multiplying by (2/3)^-3, we get ...

  18·(2/3)^-3 = s1 = 18·27/8

  s1 = 243/4 . . . . . matches choice A
